Email marketing is a faster and less expensive way to communicate with your customers as opposed to direct mail. You can create an email campaign in a few minutes and send it with a mouse click!</span>﻿ <span style="color: black;">One way to promote your products and services is to have a several coupons or special offers that are time sensitive and loaded in your autoresponder. Try to get at least 10 deals and set up the <a href="http://unlimitedautorespondersnow.com/" target="_blank"><span style="color: blue;">autoresponder</span></a> to mail your campaign messages to your subscribers daily. Then send your customers as well as new prospects to your website or capture page and instruct them to complete the form to get your great holiday promotions.</span></div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;">&nbsp;</div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;"><span style="color: black;">Your deals can be bogo (buy one get one free), discounts, free shipping...whatever makes sense for your business and would be a good holiday offer for your clients.</span></div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;">&nbsp;</div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;"><span style="color: black;">Another good thing about email marketing and using an autoresponder is that you can easily send a broadcast email to your list. You can find out if they are looking for something in particular or get feedback on your promotions.</span></div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;"><span style="color: black;"></span>&nbsp;</div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;"><span style="color: black;"><strong>Please feel free to post comments or questions below.

An <a href="http://unlimitedautorespondersnow.com/" target="_blank"><span style="color: blue;">autoresponder</span></a> is a service that allows a marketer to keep track of customers and prospects. You can use it as a subscription form on your existing site or create what's called a squeeze or capture page to obtain contact information.</span><br /><span style="color: black;"></span><br /><span style="color: black;">When your site visitor fills out information according to what you've requested on your form, the autoresponder then saves their details and sends them an email with whatever report or promotion that you've set up. You can arrange to send an email immediately after your visitor subscribes to your list, then set up different times for the remaining messages in your email campaign.</span><br /><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;"><span style="color: black;">&nbsp;</span></div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;"><span style="color: black;">This automates the communication process, since once you've loaded messages into the autoresponder, you can just sit back and relax. As long as your list members remain subscribed they will continue to receive communications from you through delivery of your autoresponder service. </span></div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;"><span style="color: black;">&nbsp;</span></div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;"><strong><span style="color: black;">Any questions?

For instance I have a real estate related website and I ask the address and how many units are in the owner's building that they wish to sell. This allows me to do do some research before I contact the property owner directly. </span></div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;"><span style="color: black;">For most situations you really just need those two items of information. Often the visitor is busy and won't want to bother with taking time to complete a long form when they don't even know you or what your product or service is about. Also people, particularly in the age of scamming and identity theft online are hesitant to give out any more personal details than they have to.</span></div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;"><span style="color: black;"></span>&nbsp;</div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;"><span style="color: black;">So respect your visitors time and privacy. It's not a bad idea to put in a notation that their information will be keep private, if that is the case. Plus it doesn't hurt to let them know they can unsubscribe whenever they wish. </span></div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;"><span style="color: black;"></span>&nbsp;</div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;"><span style="color: black;">Make people feel comfortable about receiving more details on your business and they're more likely to become customers.</span></div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;"><strong><span style="color: black;"></span></strong>&nbsp;</div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;"><strong><span style="color: black;">Thanks for visiting.

Make sure that the headlines you write are informative and detailed. </span><br /><br /><span style="color: black;">The headline is your opportunity to make an impression, to show that you consistently provide information and value. That's what keeps readers subscribed to your list. Tell a quick story within your headline that accurately describes the content so the audience knows what to expect. </span><br /><br /><span style="color: black;">Catchy, funny headlines can attract readers, but still make sure they tie into the material offered in an intelligent way. A sense of humor is fine, but you still want to be taken seriously.</span><br /><br /><span style="color: black;">Then provide content applicable to what your subscribers signed up for and offer compelling email messages that inform and educate, not just push for a sale.</span><br /><br /><strong><span style="color: black;">Feel free to post comments or questions on this post.</span></strong><br /><br /><span style="color: black;">Sondra Carpenter</span><br /><a href="http://unlimitedautorespondersnow.com/" target="_blank"><span style="color: blue;">UnlimitedAutoRespondersNow.com</span></a>Sondra Carpenterhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/17381610131949171559noreply@blogger.com16tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3120642589613565850.post-86011397395214695432012-03-04T11:23:00.000-05:002012-03-04T11:23:35.493-05:00Get MLM Leads Using Email Marketing - Part 3 of 3<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><a href="http://2.bp.blogspot.com/-bqKK140KuME/T1OVjZP8DdI/AAAAAAAAAFA/X_bb4oIW5LI/s1600/156351_money_life_and_the_cyberspac.jpg" imageanchor="1" style="clear: left; cssfloat: left; float: left; margin-bottom: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" height="150" src="http://2.bp.blogspot.com/-bqKK140KuME/T1OVjZP8DdI/AAAAAAAAAFA/X_bb4oIW5LI/s200/156351_money_life_and_the_cyberspac.jpg" uda="true" width="200" /></a></div><span style="color: black;">Make sure that you keep in touch with your MLM subscriber list, at least once a week send a broadcast message through your </span><a href="http://unlimitedautorespondersnow.com/" target="_blank"><span style="color: blue;">autoresponder</span></a><span style="color: black;">.

And despite whatever your upline says, the friends and family route is really not effective. Trust me on this, I've been in a few MLM businesses before. :0) The real way to build your team is to obtain MLM leads that are targeted. You want people that not only just want to be entrepreneurs, you want them to be interested specifically in YOUR business! </span><br /><br /><span style="color: black;">The first part of the process is in building your own website or blog. I know you'll be provided with a replicated site for your business, but stand out from the crowd with your own. You can add more information specific to you and you have more flexibility. You can use free services like weebly.com or search Google for others, just don't have banners all over it, make it look professional. It doesn't have to be huge, but at least 5 pages covering you and the advantages of your opportunity.</span><br /><br /><strong><span style="color: black;">The next post will cover an important addition to your site.</span></strong><br /><br /><span style="color: black;">Sondra Carpenter</span><br /><a href="http://unlimitedautorespondersnow.com/" target="_blank"><span style="color: blue;">UnlimitedAutoRespondersNow.com</span></a>Sondra Carpenterhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/17381610131949171559noreply@blogger.com1tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3120642589613565850.post-25272365034976920242012-03-01T21:25:00.000-05:002012-03-01T21:25:12.497-05:00My Horror Story About Free AutoResponders<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><a href="http://2.bp.blogspot.com/--bNGWMNck8g/T1AtudREvrI/AAAAAAAAAEo/aczJo_1442c/s1600/monster1.jpg" imageanchor="1" style="clear: left; cssfloat: left; float: left; margin-bottom: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" height="200" src="http://2.bp.blogspot.com/--bNGWMNck8g/T1AtudREvrI/AAAAAAAAAEo/aczJo_1442c/s200/monster1.jpg" uda="true" width="150" /></a></div><span style="color: black;">Several months ago I wanted to use an autoresponder to capture visitors to a site I was building. I was thinking maybe I'll just use a free autoresponder and save a few bucks. Well, one that I tried had additional code that I couldn't remove from my form. That made it difficult to customize it to fit on the page the way I wanted. There wasn't much support, I was told to go to a forum and search for answers there, that really didn't help.</span><br /><br /><span style="color: black;">The next one I tried seemed to work alright...in the beginning. About a week later I noticed that the code on the website for the capture form wasn't working. Then when I tried to login to my autoresponder account the entire site was gone! It was like it was never there! Needless to say I don't use them anymore either.</span><br /><br /><span style="color: black;">With my current <a href="http://unlimitedautorespondersnow.com/" target="_blank"><span style="color: blue;">autoreponder service</span></a> I don't have to worry about that type of instability. They've been around since 2000 and&nbsp; have been effective in maintining high deliverability rates at an affordable flat monthly rate.</span><br /><br /><span style="color: black;">I'm not saying that all free autoresponder services are bad, but I personally don't have the time or patience to hope my service doesn't stop working or disappear. After all that can cost you not only time, but money as well. And that's REALLY scary!</span><br /><br /><strong><span style="color: black;">Feel free to vent about your free autoresponder frustrations if you wish.

These emails can be industry related news that may be of interest that ties directly to a reminder about your business, a coupons, freebies or helpful tips. Over time you want to deliver information that your list members will be eager to read and give them an incentive to remain long term subscribers. </span><span style="color: black;"><br /></span><br /><span style="color: black;">Thanks for visiting, feel free to post comments or questions.</span><br /><span style="color: black;"><br /></span><span style="color: black;">Sondra Carpenter</span><br /><a href="http://unlimitedautorespondersnow.com/" target="_blank"><span style="color: blue;">UnlimitedAutoRespondersNow.com</span></a>Sondra Carpenterhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/17381610131949171559noreply@blogger.com0tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3120642589613565850.post-54338861692536961582012-03-01T18:47:00.004-05:002012-03-01T18:50:48.039-05:00Creating AutoResponder Campaigns<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><a href="http://3.bp.blogspot.com/-51dXFczGIF8/T1AKDwMGF1I/AAAAAAAAAEY/tkVGUKGvXZI/s1600/1215930_an_e-mail.jpg" imageanchor="1" style="clear: left; cssfloat: left; float: left; margin-bottom: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" height="200" src="http://3.bp.blogspot.com/-51dXFczGIF8/T1AKDwMGF1I/AAAAAAAAAEY/tkVGUKGvXZI/s200/1215930_an_e-mail.jpg" uda="true" width="171" /></a></div><span style="color: black;">When setting up an AutoResponder Campaign you'll need to figure out what to write in your messages. Take inventory of subjects that your clients or prospects have expressed interest in, or topics that fit your expertise. Come up with 7-12 messages for your campaign. The first message should be set up to go out immediately after your visitor first subscribes. The next 4-7 messages can be set up to go out daily, then the remainder every 2 days. </span><br /><br /><span style="color: black;">The next post will discuss messages to send after your initial report has been sent out.</span><br /><br /><span style="color: black;"><strong>Feel free to post any questions or comments. </strong></span><br /><strong></strong><br /><span style="color: black;">Sondra Carpenter</span><br /><a href="http://unlimitedautorespondersnow.com/" target="_blank"><span style="color: blue;">UnlimitedAutoRespondersNow.com</span></a>Sondra Carpenterhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/17381610131949171559noreply@blogger.com0tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3120642589613565850.post-30212554273389696852012-02-28T11:05:00.005-05:002012-02-28T12:00:46.200-05:00Capture Your Site Visitors<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><a href="http://4.bp.blogspot.com/-_rQJnS2p20U/T0z541gKeTI/AAAAAAAAADg/3vydQbt78cQ/s1600/1205526_boathouse.jpg" imageanchor="1" style="clear: left; cssfloat: left; float: left; margin-bottom: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" height="179" src="http://4.bp.blogspot.com/-_rQJnS2p20U/T0z541gKeTI/AAAAAAAAADg/3vydQbt78cQ/s200/1205526_boathouse.jpg" uda="true" width="200" /></a></div><span style="color: black;">With email marketing it's always a good idea to have a way to capture visitors that come to your site. Not necessarily the way fishermen use a net, but by using a capture form.

Your members specifically chose to receive information about your business and industry. </span><br /><br /><span style="color: black;"><strong><span style="color: blue;">Don't Write A Novel</span></strong> </span><br /><span style="color: black;">Average length of each email should be 2-4 paragraphs. You don't want to bore your subscribers with long winded messages they won't feel like reading.</span><span style="color: black;"><br /></span><br /><strong><span style="color: blue;">Call To Action</span></strong><br /><span style="color: black;">Make sure your readers understand what you want them to do next.

That happens to me, too! But with building a mailing list, buying one ready made can be like throwing your money away. Many autoresponder services, </span><a href="http://unlimitedautorespondersnow.com/" target="_blank"><span style="color: blue;">including the one I use</span></a><span style="color: black;">, will terminate your account if you attempt to use a list you purchase. You can easily be accused of spamming since none of the people on the list are familiar with you or your service. Technically, having someone become a subscriber to your list means they have actually agreed to receive messages from you. </span><span style="color: black;"><br /></span><br /><span style="color: black;">So don't waste your time or money. You'll get&nbsp;tips from this blog on how to create your own subscriber list with opt-in email marketing.</span><br /><span style="color: black;"><br /></span><br /><span style="color: black;">Sondra Carpenter</span><br /><a href="http://unlimitedautorespondersnow.com/"><span style="color: blue;">http://UnlimitedAutoRespondersNow.com</span></a>Sondra Carpenterhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/17381610131949171559noreply@blogger.com0tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3120642589613565850.post-29894995595270397432012-02-23T18:16:00.009-05:002012-03-01T19:05:10.656-05:00A Little Introduction<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><a href="http://2.bp.blogspot.com/-8707xxFkiP8/T0bGZLLFPGI/AAAAAAAAAC0/yssvX_PJXAI/s1600/1073703_golden_mic.jpg" imageanchor="1" style="clear: left; cssfloat: left; float: left; margin-bottom: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" lda="true" src="http://2.bp.blogspot.com/-8707xxFkiP8/T0bGZLLFPGI/AAAAAAAAAC0/yssvX_PJXAI/s1600/1073703_golden_mic.jpg" /></a></div><span style="color: black;">I've posted blogs off and on, but this one will be a main resource for people who want to learn more about Email Marketing. Some history about me, I used to be one one of those network technicians who connected your computer to the company's Internet backbone in the late 90's, so I've been around technology for a minute or two. I've played around with everything from UNIX workstations (don't worry if you've never heard of those), to the first Apple PowerBook, to my current Toshiba laptop.</span><span style="color: black;"><br /></span><br /><span style="color: black;">I now run Ebiz Advertising </span><span style="color: black;">in Philadelphia, PA, and refer services for people who want to promote their online and offline businesses. <a href="http://unlimitedautorespondersnow.com/" target="_blank"><span style="color: blue;">TrafficWave.net is the autoresponder service I prefer</span></a> for email marketing. Stay tuned for some tips and tricks I've learned through real life trials and experiences.</span><br /><br /><span style="color: black;">Well, I've shared a little about myself. You can feel free to introduce yourself as well and post any questions about email marketing you'd like to see covered here.
